Netflix’s first NFL games added extra star power.

Beyoncé will perform on Christmas Day during halftime of the Houston Texans’ game against the Baltimore Ravens, the streaming service announced Sunday evening.

The game is the second of two games that Netflix will stream at Christmas next month. The Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs face off in the first game of the day. The games will be only the third and fourth regular-season NFL games played on a Wednesday since 1948.

Netflix will also air games on Christmas, a day traditionally reserved for a series of NBA games, in 2025 and 2026. The service just started airing a live boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul, although many fans are experiencing technical difficulties had a struggle with actually watching the battle at home.

Beyoncé is a huge asset to the NFL and Netflix for many reasons. The Houston native will perform at NRG Stadium in Texas, which should make for a great holiday moment for the fans in attendance. She’s also hot on the heels of her record-breaking album “Cowboy Carter,” which earned 11 Grammy nominations earlier this month. That is the highest amount Beyoncé has received for a solo album in her career, tying a record.

Beyoncé has performed at the Super Bowl twice in her career. She headlined Super Bowl XLVII in New Orleans in 2013. Beyoncé also appeared alongside Coldplay and Bruno Mars at Super Bowl 50 at Levi’s Stadium in California.

While this appearance will certainly be shorter than her last two in the NFL world, considering the time constraints it will have for a regular season game compared to the Super Bowl, the NFL is certainly going all in on her first real Christmas. Day effort.
